Golf & Clubs
Club country, ten minutes from the parks
Dr. Phillips grew up around golf-course communities, and one of them hosts the PGA Tour every March. What that means for living here, plus the official links.

The local angle
Golf is part of the address here
Much of Dr. Phillips is organized around club communities, with Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill Club & Lodge as the anchor — every March the Arnold Palmer Invitational brings the PGA Tour, and the neighborhood's rhythm changes for a week. Homes here range from fairway-facing estates to standard suburban streets a block off the course, and club membership is always a separate decision from the home purchase.
If you are weighing a club community, ask early about membership classes, initiation and monthly costs, and whether any membership obligation attaches to the property itself — it varies by community and by deed.
